If he plays well, it'll be interesting to see what happens once Jackson is fit.  I don't think it's implausible that he holds Jackson out when both are available, in the same way others have held him out. 

it keeps the heat on Ben Brown and Tom McDonald as well, 1-2 bad weeks and Jackson could take their place.

    There will be times where Brown weid and tmac will share the forward line, I am really excited to see this.

    Hopefully he can kick a few and cement a spot in the team. He'll need a run of games though, at least 3 i'd say. Very difficult to hit the ground running after such a long lay off.

    Bulldogs will be nervous if Weid finds form. their backline is a big weakness imo and if we can get our midfield sorted over the next 2 weeks, which i'm conident we can, we could become an even better side

    I feel the need, the nnnneeeedd for Wwweeeiiiidddd!!!

    Glad to hear Mark Williams is high on him, hopefully Sammy has the confidence to take his shot. 
     

    Can’t wait for him to be potted if he doesn’t star, give him a few weeks people!

    Would love to see him kick 3+ 

    I'm a big fan of him and hopefully he can get a handle of the Jones or Weitering (although both a pretty solid defenders)  

    Very interested in his attack on the ball/defensive acts too

    Put the pots down Sammy and the chips or you’ll end up looking like Hutchy.

    I am a good deal older than 61, CH. Comfortable, but not numb. I play golf every day and that makes this 'senior' lithe, lively and relatively fit for age. Try it, you'll love it. Footy has its frustrations that we bear. Golf has even more frustrations that are the characteristic fun of the game.

    To your post, earlier, I almost stated: My Floyd has turned pink, and my numbness is as weak as the Waters.

    This proposed 'fit and ready' forward line that we have been planning will be frightening for any opposition. Our backline is already in their nightmare(s) and if the midfield can re-group, distemper will set in with halucinations of the Red and the Blue.

    Remember when we had Tmac firing next to Hogan , Hannan and Garlett. It seemed like a powerful combination.

    Well now we have Tmac firing....Bbb...Sw...Kozzie and Frtiitta.

    Not too shabby.

    Fans will burn the joint down if he makes a hash of it.

    2+ goals, 10-15 touches, a few free kicks and maybe a contested mark or two.  Cause thats an average game from Ben Brown based on career performances.

    Admittedly, all reports are he's taken a big leap forward this year so intriguing to see. Hope he gets a few weeks to show it.

     Jacko  will come back into the team no doubt so it is up to all players to perform to keep their spot.

    Would have thought after 5 years in the system by Weideman - all the puns would have been exhausted... 

    I suspect 'headline writers' have around 1000 options just sitting there...and just need to scroll through Demonland ?

    Yes, but if he teams well with Ben then it will be Hash Browns!

    (I will see myself out now)

    Just a little bit of fun, a word play, that's all.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
